About

Vittoria Cojazzi is a neurosurgeon and researcher whose work centers on the advancement of stereotactic and robotic neurosurgery, with a particular focus on improving the safety and precision of minimally invasive intracranial procedures. Her major contribution lies in the clinical translation of robotic-assisted technologies for brain biopsy. In her landmark prospective pilot study, she led the first clinical assessment of the iSYS1, a small, compact robotic device for image-guided biopsy of deep-seated or inoperable intracranial lesions. This work, which has garnered 24 citations, provided critical early evidence that such robotic systems can achieve high diagnostic yield with a favorable safety profile, paving the way for broader adoption of robotic assistance in neurosurgical oncology. Cojazzi’s research directly addresses the challenge of sampling lesions not amenable to open surgery, demonstrating how robotic precision can reduce procedural risk and improve patient outcomes. Her findings are foundational for the ongoing integration of robotics into standard neurosurgical practice, marking her as a key figure in the evolution of stereotactic biopsy techniques.
